Abstract
The kinetics of the thermal decomposition reaction of gaseous 3,3,6,6‐tetramethyl‐1,2,4,5‐tetroxane (ACDP) in the presence of n‐octane was studied in the 403.2–523.2 K temperature range. This reaction yields acetone as the organic product. Under optimum conditions, first‐order kinetics were observed, included when the S/V ratio of the Pyrex reaction vessel was increased by a nearly six‐fold factor. In the range 443.2–488.2 K the temperature dependence of the rate constants for the unimolecular reaction in conditioned vessels is given by In k~1~/(s^−1^) = (31.8 ± 2.5) − [(39.0 ± 2.5)/RT]. The value of the energy of activation in kcal/mol correspond to one OO bond homolysis of the ACDP molecule in a stepwise biradical initiated decomposition mechanism. At the lower reaction temperatures as well in preliminary experiments participation of a surface catalyzed ACDP decomposition process could be detected. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

## Abstract The kinetics of gas‐phase decomposition of methyl isocyanate have been investigated in the range of 427–548°C. Two decomposition routes are followed; the predominant one is a radical‐chain process giving CO, H~2~, and HCN as major products, which has an order of 1.5 and an Arrhenius equ
The kinetics of the gas-phase decomposition of ethyl, isopropyl, and t -butyl isocyanates have been studied in the temperature range of 380-530OC. t -Butyl isocyanate decomposes almost exclusively by a unimolecular route to isobutene and HNCO, but in EtNCO and i - PrNCO this route competes with a fr
